The Field Veterinary Program (FVP) addresses wildlife health issues impacting conservation efforts globally. It investigates disease transmission between wildlife, livestock, and humans, promoting One Health approaches.

Area of Science:

  • Wildlife Health
  • Conservation Medicine
  • Ecology

Background:

  • The Wildlife Conservation Society's Field Veterinary Program (FVP), established in 1989, combats wildlife disease challenges in global conservation.
  • FVP supports over 300 WCS projects in 50+ countries, many in tropical regions with wildlife-livestock interactions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present FVP projects demonstrating the complex interplay between wildlife, domestic livestock, and human health.
  • To highlight the FVP's role in understanding and mitigating disease threats within conservation contexts.

Main Methods:

  • Wildlife health care encompassing critical factor identification, health monitoring, and crisis intervention.
  • Development and application of new technologies for wildlife health management.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Collaborative research involving interdisciplinary experts (acarologists, mycologists, ecologists, biologists).

    • Main Results:

    • Case studies illustrate how wildlife diseases impact livestock and human populations.
    • Evidence shows the reciprocal influence of humans and livestock on wildlife health.
    • FVP provides expert advice to governmental and non-governmental agencies on wildlife health policy.

    Conclusions:

    • Wildlife health is intrinsically linked to domestic animal and human well-being, necessitating integrated approaches.
    • The FVP plays a crucial role in advancing conservation medicine through field-based research and intervention.
    • Interdisciplinary collaboration is essential for addressing complex wildlife health and conservation challenges.
